In particular, measures of gait speed and grip strength independently predict incident dementia and cognitive decline in older individuals. Less is known regarding their relationship with structural brain volume in the presence of cognitive impairment.

Bioengineering, Tissues and Neuroplasticity, UR 7377, Faculty of Health/EPISEN, University of Paris-Est Créteil, 94010 Créteil, France.
Objectives: To compare the effects of explosive and strength resistance training on neuromuscular and functional parameters in older adults and to analyze the relationship between changes in walking speed and improvements in plantar flexor (PF) neuromuscular parameters following interventions.
Methods: In total, 40 participants were randomly assigned to either an explosive resistance training group (EXG, n = 18; age = 80.41 ± 10.
Qualitative investigation into the functional problems of transtibial prostheses when amputees perform agricultural work.

BMC Health Serv Res
November 2024
Society for Nutrition, Education and Health Action, Mumbai, India.
Background: In India, Non-Degree Allopathic Providers (NDAPs), who do not have formal training in allopathic medicine, play a prominent role in basic healthcare delivery in both rural areas and urban informal settlements. Often recognized as providers of 'first contact' care for minor acute ailments, there is little information regarding the roles they play in providing services for non-communicable diseases (NCDs). In this study, we explore the roles played by NDAPs in diagnosing and managing two NCDs-diabetes and hypertension-in urban informal settlements of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.
